Biggest upset ever?

Love that Sharks beat the two teams bagging Panthers out for easy games, when they both had the easiest games of the round and lost. There'd no such thing as a guaranteed two points.

PMSL... Needs an LOL thread. Outside of the win last week, the sharks lost their star and coach, missing SOO players, yet still defeat the premiers. :clap::clap:

Can anybody remember a bigger upset in professional rugby league?

Basically a nsw cup side against a near full strength reigning premiers...not to mention being down 24-0

Absolutely insane!

We had a decent team but hardly full strength. No Tupou, Jennings,rats,guerra,cordner and mini for half the game.

Well done sharks you deserved it.

Roosters have been poor all year but that was diabolical

Roosters were missing:

Roger Tuivasa-Sheck
Michael Jennings
Daniel Tupou


(that is 3/4 of the three quarter line)

Boyd Cordner
Aiden Guerra


(that is 1/2 of the back row)

Anthony Minichiello for half the game.

That means they were missing one third of their regular roster in the second half.


The only Roosters players who were playing well were Sonny Bill Williams, Mitchell Aubuisson, Sam Moa, and Remi Casty.

Local at excuses for Roosters. They started with a full strength spine and we're 10-1 favourites. Biggest choke ever, especially with ref's helping them.

SBW was awful.

How did you not include Napa?

I forgot Napa. You are right. Napa was the fifth player who did well.

But with a third of the Rooster roster missing, and a rookie full back in the second half, and a massive reshuffle of the outside backs, how could the Roosters not lose? It was almost inevitable.

I guess then you are really lucky there was no Carney gallen fafita lewis or the second half score could have been worse than 30-6
